Exactly edwin, let's give ALL of us an equal chance, without asking anybody what caste they belong to. All we need to ask is if the person can pass the tests for higher education and jobs. there aren't separate tests for 'upper castes' and 'lower castes'. Its the same test. So, either someone who has the merit or the money is getting through. And if you think merit and money are only with the 'upper caste' you may be grossly wrong. we only need to weed out the money power and allow everyone to compete on their merit, and then help those who could not make it on their merit. If 50:50 is your mantra, so is everyone's here. Everybody wants equality.
